Description for Nonlinear MHD Waves and Turbulence
Hardback. This contribution to astrophysical literature covers nonlinear MHD waves and turbulence, including such topics as: Whistler solitons, their radiation and the self-focusing of Whistler wave beams; Alfven wave filamentation and plasma heating; and shell models for magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Editor(s): Passot, Thierry; Sulem, Pierre-Louis. Series: Lecture Notes in Physics. Num Pages: 395 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHD; PHVB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 23. Weight in Grams: 742.
The workshop "Nonhnear MHD Waves and Turbulence" was held at the - servatoire de Nice, December 1-4, 1998 and brought together an international group of experts in plasma physics, fluid dynamics and applied mathematics. The aim of the meeting was to survey the current knowledge on two main topics: (i) propagation of plasma waves (like Alfven, whistler or ion-acoustic waves), their instabilities and the development of a nonlinear dynamics lea ding to solitonic structures, wave collapse or weak turbulence; (ii) turbulence in magnetohydrodynamic flows and its reduced description in the presence of a strong ambient magnetic fleld.
